100 Favourite Nursery Rhymes and Songs

CD-Charts > Music > All Childrens Music
by: Various Artists

Release Date July 08, 2002
This sounded like a great buy initially. My baby boy loves songs but although there are 100 of them, you can't select which one you want to listen to. It only comes in two sections and to hear a popular song, you have to plough through an irritating selection of spoken rhymes. I've given up trying to listen to it now.

Andersen's Fairy Tales: The Ugly Duckling, The Emperor's New Clothes, etc.: The Ugly Duckling, The Emperor's New Clothes, Etc. (Children's Classics)

CD-Charts > Music > All Childrens Music
by: H.C. Andersen

Release Date September 01, 1994
Two stories are truly gruesome and VERY violent. Not prince overthrowing dragon in woods to save princess, gruesome and violent. I mean creeping envy, revenge and sadistic murder of an elderly lady and a young boy (amongst other things)!

DEFINITELY NOT for all children by any means. Just had to add this review so more critical (discerning?) parents could be warned if needed.

The remaining stories are great. However, The Little Match Girl is very, very sad! But, so true to how some children today must struggle while those with far more than they need walk by. A deeply poignant tale.

We were very disappointed BUT only with the two rotten ones. I've recorded the fabulous ones and chucked the discs away. Erica ... Read More:

Let's Wiggle

CD-Charts > Music > All Childrens Music
by: The Wiggles

Release Date
I bought this for my 2 year old son for Christmas and he loves it. My 11 year old daughter listens to it as much as he does, and we all like to join in!

The songs are fun, varied and not too long which is important for 2 year olds.

It turns out that my Daughter's Australian friend in her class, has all their CDs and many of them knew them and started singing various Wiggles songs - all at 11 years old! Most enjoyable.

Tippett: A Child of our Time

CD-Charts > Music > All Childrens Music
from: Chandos

Release Date October 01, 1999
For many, this is the most moving oratorio ever written - not just because its principal subject matter is so emotive, but because musically and philosophically, it is a work of immense spirituality.

Tippett wrote his own libretto. One that, with searing insight, forces us to face the 'shadow' (the dark side) of humanity and recognise the 'glory of light'.

I cannot listen to this work now without being moved to tears at least twice; every time when the incarcerated teenager screams to his desperate mother: 'I will defy the world to reach you!'.

This Hickox recording is close to perfection. It is the four soloists that make this recording what it is, but the sound quality is incredible and Hickox responds to the finest ... Read More:

Classics for Children

CD-Charts > Music > All Childrens Music
from: Decca

Release Date October 18, 1999
The recordings found on this disc are some of the best available (...in fact, the Britten conducting Britten is the Gramophone's Recommended Recording!). Add to that the most delightful account of Schumann's "Scenes from Childhood", and you find a fantastic disc. Then look at the price! 5 stars for a well rounded CD, which wont break the bank.
